I have a nearly new condition, OHV Ford 172" Industrial engine that I want to install into my 51 8N, I bought a 1954 Ford tractor engine plate thinking it might work but, while similar, no go. I think the 172 was factory in the Ford 601 series machines?? Anyone know of a easy way to install the later OHV 172" engine into the 8Ns using the standard 8N transmission. I am not plowing with it, just pulling a manure spreader and working a hay spear. The adapter would have to fit against the 172's 1/4" engine plate (because of the starter mount being on the plate) and be about 1 3/4" front to rear, and then have the 8N transmission pattern. I could weld something up, but getting something that large machined flat and parallel, and drilled concentrically, is a bit of a problem.
